WEBVTT - Eagles Don't Have Names 0:00:02.480 --> 0:00:06.720 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.840 --> 0:00:10.800 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:17.880 Arm Strong and Gatty and now he Armstrong and Yetty. 0:00:21.520 --> 0:00:25.040 I was just reading yet another piece on what's actually 0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:28.440 in the DSA platform, the Democratic Socialists of America, and 0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:31.600 holy crap, hey, mainstream media, are you gonna make these 0:00:31.640 --> 0:00:35.440 people start answering questions whether or not they actually believe 0:00:35.479 --> 0:00:39.200 this stuff? These candidates, they call themselves Democratic Socialists. 0:00:39.760 --> 0:00:40.800 Why don't we start with that. 0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:43.880 Actually, there are a number of folks who've gone through 0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:46.519 their platform and it includes, and this is a brief summary, 0:00:47.120 --> 0:00:50.880 no more bills for anyone, okay, of any sort. 0:00:51.080 --> 0:00:55.560 Stop there, fucking no. Really, the rest of this is gravy. 0:00:57.320 --> 0:01:05.440 You're laughing, Yes, I'm laughing. Oh my god, Oh my god. 0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:07.480 If you can stand up in front of a crowd 0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:11.000 and say no more bills and they think cool, then 0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:14.080 you're talking to children or dumb dums. 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:16.479 Exactly, children are dumb dumbs. 0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:22.040 Number two government run food, housing, medicine, transportation, and nationalizing 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:24.920 all other large corporations and essential industries. 0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:27.360 That's actually been tried and could be tried, And that 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:29.319 one worries me. The No More Bills. 0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:34.240 Three, the drafting of a new constitution, meaning getting rid 0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:37.880 of the current one. Four, defunding the Department of War. Five, 0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:43.160 slavery reparations. Six, unlimited free abortion and gender affirming care 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:47.360 for all, including minors children. Seven have taxpayers pay off 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:50.320 everyone's entire student debt and fund a limited, free higher 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:51.240 education for all. 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:55.600 Eight Why I mean, I suppose there's no point in 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:57.960 nitpicking any of these because they're all so ridiculous, but 0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:01.960 they don't even fit together themselves. Why am I going 0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:04.520 and getting a degree to get a job in a 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:07.440 world where I get free housing, free healthcare, free food, 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:08.280 free transportation. 0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:10.639 What do I need a job for? That's actually a 0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:11.480 pretty good point. 0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:16.120 Let's see taking steps toward fully abolishing the police and 0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:20.000 prison system, fully abolishing police in prison. 0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:22.680 I mean again, if you talk to a crowd that 0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:29.280 cheers that you're talking to children or ignoramuses, yes, no jails, 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:30.119 no cops. 0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:32.120 Are you nuts? 0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:35.680 How do you type that out on a website and think, Hey, 0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:38.320 I really think that we're gonna get mocked for this? 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:40.160 Now go ahead put it in there. 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:43.040 Well, what you need to remember? And I'm enjoying the 0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:46.760 mockery very much. Is that human beings very much like us, 0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:51.200 were induced by Chairman Mao and his regime to drag 0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:54.840 their parents and teachers into the street and beat them 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:59.760 to death for being counter revolutionaries. As idiotic as anything 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:03.560 could possibly be, and yet they did it. Let's see 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:08.240 nine and all deportations, providing amnesty for all illegal immigrants 0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:12.600 and allowing unlimited migration to America. Ten, Abolish the Presidency, 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:14.720 the Supreme Court unlimited. 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:15.720 I've got it back up. 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:22.040 Again, Okay, And as I said, I'm not sure engaging 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:27.080 these things in conversation, it's really worthwhile. You're gonna have 0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:32.960 no borders in a country that gives free everything, free housing, 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:37.000 free food, free medical care, free transportation. You're gonna have 0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:39.960 open borders in a country that offers free everything. You 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:42.560 realize the population of the United States is going to 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:46.280 be seven point eight billion or whatever the current population 0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:47.920 of the world is as. 0:03:47.720 --> 0:03:51.480 Soon as they can get the flights and boats came on. Yep, yep, 0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:55.360 absolutely true, and finally abolish the Presidency, the Supreme Court, 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:58.280 and the Senate. Other than that, this writer writes, their 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:01.960 plan seems super realistic and not at all naive, revolutionary 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:02.600 or dystopian. 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:04.560 Well, right, as they claim. 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:08.320 Those candidates get away with claiming that it's just no, 0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:09.920 you just kind of you know, my you know, the 0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:13.880 European version of Democratic Party, That's what I'm talking about, 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:17.400 kind of right, European socialism, white sort of thing. Well, 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:19.080 that's not what the platform says. 0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:23.160 Yeah, there are mainstream news commentators right now saying no, no, no, no, 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:26.599 they're not communists or like textbook socialists. They want just 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:31.160 want more, more help for people, just the warm embrace 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.720 of collectivism. I'm reminded of Sidney Hook, the great philosopher 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:39.160 who starting out as a Marxist and later became a 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:42.279 leading critic of communism, who says, I was guilty of 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:46.440 judging capitalism by its operations and socialism by its hopes 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:50.719 and aspirations, capitalism by its works, and socialism by its literature. 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:54.760 To this day, this error and its disastrous consequences are 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:58.479 observable in the judgment and behavior of some impressionable and 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:03.240 impassioned individuals, mostly young. And he's right, it's a young 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.080 person's philosophy, because if you have any life experience in 0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:09.560 any realism, you realize, as Jack did, hooting an hollering that. 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.520 None of this stuff could conceivably work, certainly not together. 0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:17.040 I mean individually they can't work, but you put them 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.000 together and it's really hilarious. 0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:20.520 Oh yeah, absolutely true. 0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:23.280 We were talking about yesterday how I was saying I 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:26.880 saw green shoots of real opposition to the DSA among 0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:32.160 mainstream Democrats. For example. Now this is a weak effort, 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:36.560 but here's a prominent New York politician is seeing the 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:41.080 DSA take the power in the party, and the activists 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:45.640 aren't traditional black politicians like him. And so now this 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:48.719 guy was his first name, Donovan Richards. He's the queen 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:52.240 Borough President, He's a legend of New York politics. He 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.760 is now saying he just posted white supremacy comes in 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:59.080 all forms. So he's trying to claim the DSA are 0:05:59.080 --> 0:05:59.960 white supremacist. 0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:02.880 Well, if that works to stop them, I might join him. 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:10.280 But another example, Abdul al sayed, the islamianist who's running 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:13.159 for the Senate in Michigan has a chance of winning. 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:17.360 He has been trying to distance himself from the DSA. 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:21.840 He is a calculating Manchurian candidate, for sure. 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:22.440 Google it. 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:27.240 He's distancing himself from the DSA and insisting he's not 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.839 technically or practically a member of the radical group, but 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:34.560 he's been a markedly enthusiastic supporter for years as he 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:38.560 rose up through Michigan's progressive political scene, repeatedly appearing at 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:42.279 their events, including headlining a twenty nineteen DSA fundraiser in 0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.880 which the group's Detroit chapter called to me, longtime friend, 0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:51.120 and he's raised thousands of dollars for them. He's photographed 0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:54.200 arm and arm regularly with a bevy of grinning socialists, 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:59.000 including Rashida Talib, a DSA member who belongs to the Squad, 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.280 of course, in front of a the Marxist style pamphlet 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:06.120 depicting a red DSA fist choking a snake labeled capitalism. 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:12.040 So apparently, so Bernie founded the DSA, that movement, Democratic 0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:14.960 Socialists of America. That's what he's called himself. But so 0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:16.840 this guy writ and then the Free Press today, who 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.320 is a member of the DSA for a while, said 0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:22.360 it's gotten more radical over time, So it has changed. 0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:24.160 The actual founders are gone. 0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:27.520 Now, Yeah, that's what's going on there is they were 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:33.440 originally like European style socialism or Democratic Party or whatever, 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:35.200 that's what they were, and they've been taken over by 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:38.600 the actual communists now. And this guy that left the 0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:41.200 DSA who's trying to he's a lefty, but he's trying 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:42.160 to warn people about this. 0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:43.119 He said. 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.160 The website prompts readers to imagine a world where the 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:49.560 profit motive has been squelched out of existence. 0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:50.480 And this is a quote. 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:53.160 You have no debt, you don't need health insurance, you 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:56.200 don't pay a mortgage or have a landlord because comfortable 0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:59.560 housing is a human right. Your retirement is publicly funded 0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:03.000 by who. It goes on to promise open borders, as 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.240 you mentioned, the abolition of the police, free everything, and 0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:08.920 guaranteed jobs, all with less effort from the individual as 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.280 this person who was in the DSA. Right, this is 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:14.040 the stuff of fairy tales, but instead of a fairy godmother, 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:16.560 the reader is greeted by an agent of the secret police. 0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:19.640 Yeah no gidding, Yeah, well said, well said. 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:23.040 It's utter fantasy land only a child or a childlike 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:27.200 person would fall for. It's really quite astounding. But we've 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:30.320 been asking when is the Democratic Party going to realize 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:31.680 we've played a bunch of clips. I think it was 0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:34.960 last week of a DSA gathering or speaker after speaker 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:38.240 after speaker is saying, look, we use the Democratic Party 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:41.160 to get on the ballot, we use their line, we 0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:44.280 get elected, and then we're going to crush the Democratic Party. 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.000 They are not our friends. Yeah. 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:48.040 That was David French what he wrote while you were 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:51.199 on vacation that I thought was really good. Hey, Democrats, 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:55.040 the DSA hates you more than they hate Republicans. You 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:56.040 need to wake up to. 0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:59.920 That, right and they are. They absolutely are, I believe. 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:03.559 Let's start with thirty four. Michael Brett Bear towards the 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:05.800 end of Special Report last night, on his panel segment, 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.559 he had the usual assembly and it's weird. You almost 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:13.440 never see this on left Republicans, Democrats, moderates, all discussing 0:09:13.440 --> 0:09:15.720 the news of the day, start with thirty four. 0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:19.680 We're not just the only ones covering this bloom of 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:23.720 democratic socialists and socialists around the country. It is a 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:26.320 real thing that people are talking about. 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:28.400 And the exhibit number one was Van Jones. 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:34.800 Ideas that are literally insane, nutty, more rounding, dangerous, bigoted, 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:36.760 are not progressive, they're. 0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:39.760 Reaggressive and they should not be in our party. Then 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:43.080 he featured Bill Maher. The talking point is it's not 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:46.360 communism and socialists. Okay, I've read the quotes. Don't tell 0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:48.679 me I'm not seeing what I am seeing. Could you 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:50.200 see yourself voting for JD. Vance? 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:56.240 Yes, And then he went to I hadn't heard that, yeah, 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:57.720 Or Bill Maher would vote for JD. 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:00.520 Vance over at AOC or who are the hell would 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:03.480 be the communist or a Democratic socialists? Yeah? Exactly. 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.679 Then he had on John McCarthy, who's say, a democratic 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:14.040 one of your activist, functionary campaign manager type folks. 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.600 Thirty eight, Michael, The opinions that are being taken up 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:19.680 by these Democratic socialists are political non starters in any 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.080 of the places that we actually need to put together 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:25.160 a democratic majority. And look like Republicans aren't popular at 0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:27.320 this moment. Their one big, beautiful bill has not been 0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:29.520 defined for the American people. Their numbers are down. This 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:32.360 should be a layup for Democrats. Their only strategy is 0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:34.840 to sit and call the Democrats socialists. But the reality 0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:37.400 is is that brand is actually sticking with Democrats. People 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:39.280 buy it, and the reason they buy it is because 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.400 it feels true. You know, we've seen in the last 0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:43.040 election cycles that people sit and they look at the 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.200 Democratic Party and they say it's weak. And you know what, 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.240 Democrats need to grow a backbone, you know, get a 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:48.880 little bit of courage and sit and say no, we 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:49.800 are disavowing this. 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:51.360 Maybe voters might reward that. 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:53.280 But if we stick with these guys, it's going to 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:54.679 be a political disaster for the party. 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:57.760 Yeah, maybe that's what works to our advantage because I'm 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:01.680 similar to Bill Maher, I mean him saying he'd vote 0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:08.000 for ja jd Vance over Democrats running a socialist, I'll 0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.439 vote for I don't know, pixels, I'll vote for Rama 0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:15.439 Manuel or pick another Democrat over one of the socialists. 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:19.280 I don't it's that important that the socialists, the communists 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:21.559 don't end up in power. 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:22.000 Right. 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:26.920 It's the most evil ideology of the last one hundred 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:31.000 and fifty years. And so maybe the good news is 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:35.480 George Stephanopolis got Bill Clinton elected as a Democrat. There's 0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:38.480 no way he thinks socialism is a good idea. And 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.640 I would assume that soon he's going to have one 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:45.160 of these candidates on and just tear them limb from limb. 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:48.000 Yeah, these the Democrats are coming out of the closet 0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:52.640 as haters of the DSA and of these communists, the Marxists, 0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:55.920 which is good, yeah, it because we need their help 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:59.800 and we're so comfortable as a society in the two 0:11:59.800 --> 0:12:02.040 parts party system is held so long and. 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:06.000 Been fairly moderate. I mean, lord knows we have problems. 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:10.199 But I think Americans tend to think radical political movements 0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:13.559 can't work here. And if you think that, you're wrong 0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:16.800 what I always thought, Yeah, yeah, well you were wrong, 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:20.760 and I know you don't think that anymore. They absolutely 0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:22.920 can work because all it takes. And there was a 0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:25.600 great piece by written by one of your radical leftists 0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:28.000 I can't remember who's, talking about how they can win 0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:31.960 with seven percent of the electorate and it might even 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:35.680 have been six and I read part of it and thought, 0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:37.560 you know what, he's right. It's like, you know, fifteen 0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:41.199 percent of the population can lead a violent revolution if 0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:43.160 they have a certain number of sympathizers and the third 0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:46.480 number of people who are just apathetic. So yeah, I would, 0:12:46.520 --> 0:12:51.800 I would. I would take this stuff seriously. And part 0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:55.560 of it is a numbers game. I'm looking again at 0:12:55.640 --> 0:13:00.920 Nate Silver's unbelievably insightful analysis of issues and who cares 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:05.560 about them and the imbalance between the bulk of the 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:12.959 Democratic Party and the young leftist activists is unbelievable. Among 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:19.880 like everybody but young way left college educated activists, the 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:25.080 whole Israel Palestine thing came in twenty fifth out of 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:30.000 thirty issues. It was randomized several dozen head to head issues, 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.560 which do you think is more important? And again, Israel 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:38.600 Palestine was twenty fifth out of thirty except among the 0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:44.120 super energized lefties, and that it won. Instead of winning 0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.839 d D twenty eight percent of the time in the 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:50.360 head head matchups, it won forty five percent of the time. 0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:53.520 And among those super lefty people. 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:55.400 Okay. 0:13:55.440 --> 0:14:00.200 For instance, percentage of voters describing the issue is more 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:05.960 important acceptance of gay people among all voters twenty two percent. 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:10.640 Among extremely liberal voters it's sixty percent. I think most 0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:12.520 people will say, what do you mean, acceptance and gay people. 0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:15.840 Gay people are accepted, but it's a huge issue and 0:14:15.840 --> 0:14:19.480 a burning issue on the radical left. Acceptance of transgender people. 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:24.960 Is that an important issue? Eighteen percent of voters say yes. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:30.000 Forty nine percent of extremely liberal voters say that's a 0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:36.160 very important issue. It's a extremely energized, very small, very young, 0:14:36.720 --> 0:14:40.720 college educated, very white subset of humanity, but they've been 0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:42.040 driving the bus. 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:44.520 Take the wheelback, Democrats. 0:14:44.640 --> 0:14:47.520 We got an example of just how thoughtful they are. 0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:49.360 Coming up in a second. If you haven't heard this, 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:52.640 dumb kid explain what socialism is and I got I 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:57.640 got an example of creeping ideologies. It's depressing. I don't 0:14:57.640 --> 0:14:59.160 know if I'm going to do that or not. Maybe 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:00.640 you've had enough of that, think about it. 0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:10.320 Oh, stay here, Armstrong and getty pah. 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.640 We were talking earlier about how therapy doing more harm 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:15.520 than good for some people are really bad advice from therapists. 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:18.000 We got some great texts just going through, so we 0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:19.840 might have to revisit that issue coming up in a 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:21.880 little bit. But first we wanted to play this. I've 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:24.560 heard it three times already. I enjoyed every time here's 0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:27.240 a college kid on the street being asked to, you know, 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:31.160 to find socialism. This is how much they've thought about this. 0:15:31.920 --> 0:15:32.280 I know. 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:35.480 I saw statistic amazing for you guys, more than half 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:39.960 of young Americans now prefer socialism over capitalism. So if 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:41.480 you can look into the camera and give a thirty 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:44.920 second elevator pitch on why socialism is better than capitalism? 0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:48.720 Community, are you tired of sitting alone and being by 0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:51.800 yourself and having no one to talk to. Vassilis, it's 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:54.360 all about me. It's about Lara sitting down and having 0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:56.880 coffee with random strangery and talking to them, talking about 0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:59.320 the game. Hell, I have hugged more strangers in this 0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:01.400 past summer because of the next game, because of the 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:05.040 World Cup. Because socialism works is a watch parties at 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:07.680 a round hosts. It's about the parties that we allow. 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:11.000 You don't have cops pogging every single site and saying, oh, 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:13.120 you can't be here because there's too many people, instead 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.800 of allowing people just being in their nature, a natural 0:16:15.880 --> 0:16:18.680 element of talking each other. Dude, bond over things we 0:16:18.760 --> 0:16:22.200 love and share. So that was socialis ain't scary word. 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:22.840 He ain't me. 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:25.040 Taking your house is about me making sure your house 0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:28.200 remains in your hands and some million doesn't take it 0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:28.480 from you. 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:32.240 That's it. That a bigger house than me than I 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:33.000 am going to take it. 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:36.200 That part of Dan is really really interesting because, like 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:41.440 somebody texted earlier, the kid is mistaking socializing for socialism. 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:45.400 But then he throws in at the end he does 0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:50.400 have some concept of the idea of taking your home 0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:53.680 or everybody getting to have a millionaire is not taking 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:55.520 out with something, so. 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:01.720 That depth of knowledge should not in the day the 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:04.919 activists are thinking, geez, these people are easier than I 0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:05.600 thought they'd be. 0:17:05.960 --> 0:17:08.399 Hey, getting back to my point about how the normal 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.480 Democrats have to take their party back. One radical of 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:13.879 one in New York in a congressional race. He got 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:16.920 eleven percent of the population's votes and that was enough 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:18.720 to win the primary eleven percent. 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:22.080 How AOC got into Congress basically the same numbers, right, 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:23.959 Armstrong and Getty? 0:17:25.320 --> 0:17:27.800 Should I thousands watch them on that nest cam? The 0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:33.040 beloved bald Eagles, Jackie and Shadow? What's just happened to Jackie? 0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:37.680 David Muir last night on the news? He's got one speed. 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:40.800 So whether he's talking about three dead soldiers returning to 0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:44.840 the United States from the war in Iran and he 0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:49.440 goes into this same voice, Should I thousands watch them 0:17:49.440 --> 0:17:52.480 on that nest cam? The beloved bald Eagles, Jackie and Shadow? 0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:56.520 What's just happened to Jackie? What's just happened to Jackie? 0:17:57.000 --> 0:17:57.240 Dude? 0:17:57.280 --> 0:18:01.200 Jackie? Are you here? Where's Jackie? Bad news? 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:04.960 Mister President? So I got this funny I got this. 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:08.879 Eagles don't have names. They don't have human names. They 0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:12.960 don't know their own names. I got this story wrong. 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:14.560 I saw somebody. 0:18:14.600 --> 0:18:16.480 I thought somebody bought it in an auction, Like some 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:19.240 other stuff we were talking about earlier. They auctioned off 0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:22.080 the rug from the big lebowski that really ties the 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:22.679 room together. 0:18:25.760 --> 0:18:28.160 This was found at a good will. A guy paid 0:18:28.160 --> 0:18:29.239 three dollars for it. 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:32.040 Wilt Chamberlain's warm up jacket when he played for the 0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:34.320 Lakers in the nineteen seventy two finals. 0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:38.960 Oh my lord, I know I've been in thrift stores 0:18:39.000 --> 0:18:42.479 many times. I haven't found anything. I have you an 0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:46.040 ice bargain shirt? I can think, Oh, that'd be cool 0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:47.880 to have. Be way too big for me. I'd look 0:18:47.880 --> 0:18:54.639 like a little kid walking around in it. Would What 0:18:54.800 --> 0:18:57.040 was the like headline or whatever the therapy stuff you 0:18:57.040 --> 0:19:02.280 were doing earlier? Oh here it is stand by. Are 0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:07.560 therapists to blame, yes for the rise of adults cutting 0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:12.320 off their parents. Everything becomes trauma. 0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:15.640 And has to be dealt with in just like such 0:19:15.640 --> 0:19:19.560 an extreme way. The therapists ever say, yeah, lots of 0:19:19.600 --> 0:19:23.080 people don't get along. Sometimes you work it out. Anything 0:19:23.119 --> 0:19:23.960 else I can do for you. 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:28.439 Yeah, your parents were probably youngish and probably would have 0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:30.480 done stuff a little differently. 0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:32.320 With you, but now you had it pretty good. 0:19:32.440 --> 0:19:35.920 Or get over it, or sounds about like everybody else 0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:38.760 that comes in here. I remember one time reading I 0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:41.159 thought this was so good. It was somebody who was 0:19:41.200 --> 0:19:43.880 a therapist and they had to leave the business when 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:47.520 they realized it was just middle aged people whose lives 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:49.359 hadn't turned out the way they thought they would. 0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:54.040 That is all they talked to all day long. Wow. Wow. 0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:59.000 Anyway, I was talking about how I personally know of 0:19:59.040 --> 0:20:04.840 some crazy therapist, So what does that mean if I 0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:07.560 know a handful and I don't know that many therapists. 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:11.359 I know some normal therapists too, but sure, and you know, 0:20:11.800 --> 0:20:14.840 I would guess that most therapists are normal and helpful, 0:20:14.840 --> 0:20:16.080 but that the problem. 0:20:15.880 --> 0:20:18.199 Is a lot like if you knew like half a 0:20:18.240 --> 0:20:22.920 dozen dentists and two of them stole people's teeth while 0:20:22.920 --> 0:20:25.320 they were out and like sold them for profit and 0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:28.160 left you toothless, that would be that I would approach 0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:29.960 dentistry in a different way. 0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:35.520 Knowing that I talked about therapists stories I know personally 0:20:35.760 --> 0:20:40.359 of marriage counselors who ended up sleeping with the husband 0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:43.639 or the wife of the people they were supposed to 0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:44.439 be giving therapy to. 0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:47.920 How awful is that? Really? There ought to be a 0:20:48.000 --> 0:20:49.840 jail term for that. God, there should be. 0:20:51.280 --> 0:20:53.359 I know somebody who had that happen to him has 0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:55.520 been fighting the state of California to try to get 0:20:55.560 --> 0:20:56.639 this person disbarred. 0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:58.800 That it's uphill climb. 0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:03.440 Oh, we went to save our marriage and you slept 0:21:03.440 --> 0:21:09.080 with my husband. Good freaking God. Anyway, we got this text, Jack, 0:21:09.119 --> 0:21:11.719 You're right, I know a therapist who one slept and 0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:15.119 remarried one friend's husband, and two slept with and bought 0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:22.240 the house of another friend. What uh got this text? 0:21:22.320 --> 0:21:25.440 As a cop and personally, the observed mental health crisis 0:21:25.480 --> 0:21:29.400 is now based on your mental problems being defining qualities 0:21:29.440 --> 0:21:31.040 of your personality. 0:21:31.840 --> 0:21:32.040 Jack. 0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:35.520 You didn't say I am cancer. You said I have cancer. However, 0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:38.120 the new trend is to identify with your mental problems 0:21:38.160 --> 0:21:41.080 as who you are as opposed to an obstacle or 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:44.320 medical challenge to address, treat, and hopefully manage. Now the 0:21:44.400 --> 0:21:48.680 expectation is everyone must adjust to your mental situation. Yes, 0:21:49.560 --> 0:21:53.720 and if you don't, it's similar to racism. You're intentionally 0:21:53.760 --> 0:21:57.280 being mean or intolerant. I have experienced this. You're intentionally 0:21:57.320 --> 0:22:00.800 being mean or intolerant because you have a racist like 0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:04.120 response to someone with mental problems. Even though you may 0:22:04.160 --> 0:22:07.040 have zero knowledge that they had an issue. You're just 0:22:07.080 --> 0:22:09.760
